Spain in the News #3
My dear students, I propose a listening activity. It's authentic material taken from BBC Radio. It's a radio program about Spanish current affairs-you will for sure recognize a very well known Spanish politician... and I will say no more... What I need is that each of you listen carefully to this radio program and think of a title that describes its content. As soon as you have decided on the best title for this audio, email me the answer and, if it's accurate, I'll email you back some more activities. Greetings... and be happy!

S: Oh, that's terrible ! But in our data base says that you travelled to your destination.
C: Yes. After two nights in the terminal building, the company didn't give me a solution so I had to buy the cheapest journey.
S: And the travel was comfortable?
C: If the meaning of a comfortable travel for you is that the seat was dirty and a little bit broken, the seat belt couldn't be hooked, the cabin crew were rude and they didn't pay attention to the paseengers, and the whole travel we had turbulences, yes it was a wonderful travel.
S: Ok, wait a moment, I'm going to talk with the manager.
-Mr Graham, I have a problem.
-Another stupid has come here to complain and to tell me his digusting experience.
-I've tried to get rid of him.
-Ok, I'm going to take another complaint form and stand him a little bit more.
-Good bye Mr Graham.
Well, the manager was reported about you case and he's very sorry.
C: I'm very sorry too because I'm going to dennounce you.
S: No, no, no. I'm going to fill the complaint form and the company will give you a compensation. Well, tell me your name.
C: Alex Smith.
S: Customer number.
C: Customer number? Nobody gave me a customer number.
S: Oh yes, we don't give a customer number. Your holiday destination?
C: Well, in theory New York, but really Barajas terminal building, London, Moscu, Osaka and eventually New York.
S: well, at least you have travelled around the world
C: Are you kidding me?
S: Oh no, no, it was only a joke for relax the situation. How many days have you been in New York?
C: I could say that it could be an eternity
S: But in New York, how many days?
C: The longest two weeks of my life, from 22th March to 4th April.
S: So, have you come back today? and why don't you rest in your home and tomorrow you come back here to complain?
C: Because I prefer complaining after an awful holiday. Call me strange if you want.
S: Yes, a little bit.
C: What???
S: And your nature of complaint?
C: All that I've said.
S: Only that?
C: Is it a little cause for you?
S: Well, at least you haven't lost you luggage.
C: My luggage is in Montenegro according to the airport.
S: Oh, mmm.. Ok, this is finishes.
C: Can you give me a contact telephone?
S:Why? Don't you trust in us?

MAGICIAN´S EQUIPMENT
When he woke up the next morning he went to the christmas tree and found the magician´s kit there.
At first he was very happy but soon he found out that they were all tricks also he heard his parents that they had given him the gift and Santa Clouse doesn´t exist, he became very sad and he didn´t want to play with them so his parents planned to sell them: "Never been used. As new $45. Magician´s Equipment, assorted. Over 400 tricks. Free to serious enthusiast. Clown´s costume, complete with extra large shoes. Bargain at $350(only worn once)."
Amaia Montero
She was born on 26 of August in 1976 in the city of Irún in Guipúscua, Spain. She grew up with her parents and her older sister. When she was a child she dreamed to be a singer.
When she was 12 years old she said to her mother that she wanted to go to Madrid because she wanted to become a famous pop singer.
She studied Chemistry but after wards she studied Psichology.
In 1996 when Amaia was 20 years old she began to sing in the La Oreja de Van Goh group that in this time was a friends group that enjoyed singing.
La Oreja de Van Goh released the first album aclled Dile al Sol in 19998. This group became in a famouse group.
They released the second album colled El Viaje de Copeertol in 2000.
In 2007 Amaia left La Oreja de Van Goh and begam to sing as a singer and she has only released one album called Quiero Ser.
I like Amaia because her voice is so nice and my favorite song is 407 a song that she dedicate her father when he died.
